Crying

The itching in the corner that makes your eyeball sting
the pinching just behind your nose that crying seems to bring.

You give a soggy smile, snot congealing on your face
glad that no one is around to witness your disgrace

And I know you know it’s dumb; this private water show.
Salty solutions flow away and tears make problems grow.

But now and then a good hard cry can help you sleep at night.
Though flooding all your makeup off is not a pretty sight.

So hold on till you’re alone then untie your dread and fears.
The world may shine out clear tomorrow if you wash tonight with tears.

Just a little blurb--mostly a procrastination tactic to delay a little longer the studying I should be doing. Haha I'm nothing if not predictable. I have gained a bit of a new appreciation for VERY OCCASIONAL crying though of late, though that's bound to disappear soon.
